Summary0000909: too many error messages logged by php code
DescriptionThe current application is logging around 1600 php error messages per day to phperrors. Since nearly all of these error messages are of a few common types, they are uninteresting to inspect and obscure any real errors that might occur.
So the application code should be changed to avoid logging trivial php errors (and/or avoid causing trivial errors of course).
Additional InformationHere are the samples of the 'routine' error messages that we should get rid of:

PHP Warning: Illegal offset type in unset in /www/includes/loggedin.php on line 136
PHP Warning: Illegal offset type in unset in /www/includes/loggedin.php on line 76

PHP Warning: mkdir(../csr/client) [<a href='function.mkdir'>function.mkdir</a>]: File exists in /www/includes/general.php on line 923
PHP Warning: mkdir(../crt/client) [<a href='function.mkdir'>function.mkdir</a>]: File exists in /www/includes/general.php on line 924
PHP Warning: mkdir(../csr/client/316) [<a href='function.mkdir'>function.mkdir</a>]: File exists in /www/includes/general.php on line 925
PHP Warning: mkdir(../crt/orgserver/3) [<a href='function.mkdir'>function.mkdir</a>]: File exists in /www/includes/general.php on line 926

Note that I have only shown the English version of these errors; if the current user has selected a different language, the error messages will also be logged in that language -- this could be considered a separate bug by itself if you like: internal application error messages should NOT be automatically translated!

 /www/includes/loggedin.php on line 77 ->
shouldn't this be
  unset($key);
instead of unset($$key); ????

same in line 137

=> Variable variables
http://php.net/manual/en/language.variables.variable.php
for better coding I would prefer to write:
   unset(${$key});
